Tell us about yourself: I like Dutch Shepherddogs, especially the roughcoat. At the moment we have three dogs, two DS (one female who is 10 years and one male who is six months) and one male Laekenois at the age of three. We live in the north of The Netherlands.

Tell us about yourself: I adopted a Dutch Shepherd mix (without knowing what she was) from the SPCA here in Victoria BC and am now trying to learn everything I can about this breed. My husband and I work from home most of the time so I thought it was time to get a puppy! We have his 2 boys here half the time and we wanted a nice family dog.

Sugar looks like a miniature Dutch Shepherd with floppy ears, and has every ounce of DS traits in her little body!

I hope to learn from other DS owners and share doggy experiences.

Ya, I have to admit this one is a hard one...I was thinking of hanging a WELCOME sign around Sugar's neck and take a pic...

Without the teeth Marjolein. With the teeth, it would be a go away sign? ;)

This one is not a submission. The back of the same sign was made to reflect our other breed. ;)
Shameless plug: My friend made this for me. You can order one for yourself! (just specify breed of choice. PM me for more info.)

I used this as my 'open/closed' sign for years. :mrgreen:

I notice that Kwinney refuses to look at the Mali sign! I do like this though, may have to have one myself but with a GSD on the one side.
